Description
Here is a natural plate with genuine fossil fish bones in-situ, meaning they are in their original place.There are multiple caudal vertebrae of a fish, likely an Enchodus, as well as a lone vertebra and another bit of bone matter.
The main string of vertebrae measure about 1.8". The plate is about 4.7", and it weighs 14.85 oz. It is from the Upper or Late Cretaceous, the last great Age of the Dinosaur.
Enchodus has been referred to as a "saber-toothed herring" because of 4 prominent fangs in the front of its mouth.
This specimen and the matrix rock it is on was saved from destruction at the Phosphate Deposits of Khourigba, Morocco. Phospates is big business in Morocco, and there are large piles of minerals destined to be crushed to make phosphate. Fortunately, there are people who go through the piles and pull pieces like this out for the fossils.

With this type of specimen, a tiny amount of it may break off in shipping, but not enough to alter the beauty of the piece. I wrap it very carefully in multiple layers of wrap. If that is not acceptable to you, please do not order.
